Usage Scenario: The Weekend Ritual
It’s Saturday morning. You and your flying partner—perhaps your son, your father, or your best friend—head to the open field. You mount the wings, fill the tank, and with a quick flip of the prop, the RCGF 15cc roars to life. The sound is authentic and visceral. As you control the plane performing a low pass, the stability of the engine gives you confidence. This isn't just about flying a toy; it's about the mechanics, the teamwork, and the shared joy of mastering a complex machine. It is the ultimate way to disconnect from screens and reconnect with the real world.
Important Tips from the Expert
- Break-in is Key: To ensure the longevity of your engine, do not skip the break-in process. We recommend running the first few tanks of fuel with a slightly richer oil mixture (25/1) and avoiding prolonged full-throttle runs initially.
- Propeller Selection: While the engine supports various sizes, a 14x6 propeller often provides the best balance of thrust and speed for most sport planes.
- Safety First: Always ensure your engine mount is secure and keep clear of the propeller arc when starting.
